Many thanks for all your efforts here Simon666..You know this was one of the first blogs that ever turned me onto jazz on-line..It remains my friend a hard act to follow..This particular post is right up there with any I've ever encountered..Herbie live in the early 70's is an absolute must-hear..Cheers.

You are the MAN, Simon! Whenever I see that you have posted some music I take heed. I've gotten lots of great music from your site, in particular my favorite Gil Scott-Heron boot. Thank you for what you do!

Simon, i know it is almost an insult when people do that. Just discovered your blog and i really love it dude! too bad i don't have space in my HD to get some goodies. Oh well. You could check out my blog if you'd like and maybe get something that you don't already have! http://242east3rd.blogspot.com/

Hi,thanks for all those wonderful 70ies blogs! What about some of the bootlegs that were up at DrFusion's site. Are they still circulating somewhere?I mean two of them:Ottawa Jazz Festival, Ottawa, Canada. June 22nd, 2008and Britt Amphitheater, Jacksonville, OR, USAJune 18th, 2007

Younger Herbie is of course much more interesting and the projects of recent years can't be called interesting by any stretch of imagination but for completists they still have some value.

So if you have downloaded them yourself from Dr Fusion blog, can you please make them available somehow?Thanks!

Good grief, this is amazing! I've just picked up Bob Gluck's newish book on the Mwandishi Band ("You'll Know When You Get There"), he talks about several of these shows in detail, it's awesome to be able to hear them. Many many thanks.
